    First time we have been to a Cheddar’s Scratch Kitchen and it was a great experience! Our server was perfect and the food was really good.

    This was my first time and really enjoyed it!! I loved the croissants they were awesome! We ate the streak and chicken. The streak was a bit over cooked but very well seasoned.

    I was prepared to rag on this place honestly. I am glad I gave it a chance and tried it though! Disappointed I didn’t get to try the onion rings people rave about, they aren’t on the menu anymore! I like the decor of the building. The service was friendly and helpful, but did mess a couple of things up on the bill, it was corrected. Not a big deal though! As far as the food, it’s pretty average. I’d say that it’s pretty much basic American fair. Nothing is gonna disgust or wow you. Nothing here is pushing the culinary envelope and that’s ok! It’s nice to have normal now and again 😂. The chicken sandwich was the weakest thing I tried. The tenders were good though! The prices were very reasonable for the quality and quantity. All in all, I’d come back again! If you can’t pick something, I’d say give it a shot if you have picky eaters. Definitely enough to find something for everyone.

    Amazing service! Our waitress Aly was phenomenal! Food was amazing and serving sizes are huge! Most amazing thing is the croissants they serve!! They melt in your mouth! We had the monster cookie dessert which was amazing! Steak was flavorful and very tender!

    Food was really good, service was great .. it was just kind of cold in there, we even asked to be moved to a different table, but it was still pretty cold .. had to hurry and eat before it too got cold ❄️😬 I ordered the Santa Fe spinach dip, it was really good (brought most of it home for later though 😁) then I had the grilled salmon w/ loaded baked potato, & raspberry tea, & my husband had the bacon cheese burger w/fries 😋 'twas yummy!

    The food had really large portions and was excellent and our server was awesome and kind. I don't normally tip large but after the great service we received I gave her $60!! The food arrived fresh and hot with steam still coming off the plate and those honey butter croissants OMG!!! To die for and you get them for free!!! YOU MUST STOP A CHEDDARS when you are in Little Rock and you WONT regret you did!!!

    Cheddar's was a great place to eat today! We had chicken tenders, chicken fried steak, chicken broccoli Alfredo, and ribs with chicken. As well as cheddar and bacon fries, croissant with honey butter. It was very filling and delicious. Staff is very courteous and attentive. Clean, family friendly environment.

    Excellent food and great service! Will definitely come back. The homemade pot pie was awesome. So was the coconut shrimp. Everything we had was delicious! Next time I'll try a cocktail... =)

    I can't believe they would actually bring a broken mug and have the server tell me it was the only one he could find. Then we order food and my mother tenders where cooked very hard. Also I order classic tenders with the sauce on side it was still brought to me soaked in Sauce. The fries where plan nasty.

    We went here for lunch. Cheddar's is one of my favorite places. Lunch for 2 was $40, tip included. Clean restaurant, friendly and efficient wait staff, great food. Definitely a win! Coconut shrimp here beats Coconut shrimp at Red Lobster. Js.

    Stopped in on a rainy, Sunday afternoon for a late lunch. Not too busy, and seated right away. Our waitress, Hannah, was wonderful! Quick with bringing out Cheddars famous honey butter croissants and our drink order. We ordered the loaded potato soup and chicken fried chicken. Very tasty! Offered drinks to-go. We would eat here again!

    We had a great Sunday lunch here. The cheese dip was great. Our food arrived at the table hot and the waiter was attentive. They seemed to have appropriate COVID safety measures. The only knock is that the handicap parking was much to far from the door and poorly maintained.

    The food is the bomb! Don't come to lunch though. Been waiting for 30 mins for my food AFTER I had to have management get a waiter in order to place my drink and food order cause no one came after being seated for 10 mins. 30 minutes for a regular burger.

    First time visit on a NFL Sunday. Location great. Nice hostess clean atmosphere variety of drinks at bar. Went ole school with a delicious fresh country chicken& veggies. The chicken was very tender and the potatoes were good topped with the gravy. The croissants were warm and delicious, which were brought to the table as soon as I sat. I was well pleased and will be returning.

    This was our first time trying Cheddars! As soon as we walked in the door, we were seated quickly. Within a matter of 30 seconds, our server greeted us with their rolls. Absolutely amazing rolls!! My mom and I got the Monte Cristo. I've eaten them at other places but Cheddars was my fave! Every time that I have to go to Little Rock(cancer patient) we will ONLY be eating at Cheddars, there's other items on the menu that I would love to try!!

    I called in my order and the server who answered sounded scatter brained. She told me she was doing 3 things at once. I had to keep repeating my order with her. I ordered the Pasta Cesar salad with chicken and received no pasta. The croissants are usually a treat but they were smooshed and dry. Please do better Little Rock Cheddars.

    Delicious food! Excellent service! The waiter was friendly and funny and we really enjoyed our experience. There was a slight miscommunication on the appetizer but it was a happy accident. I suggest trying the honey butter croissants they are delicious 😋. I will be making this my new spot when coming to the area. Overall it was a pleasure and I am happy to recommend it.

  • 5/5 Kara N. 11 months ago on Google
    The food was EXCEPTIONAL 😋 Everyone was VERY pleased with their selections. Our server was SO wonderful! We kept her VERY busy because there were seven people in our party. She deserved a DEFINITE break after we left. She never lost her smile. Thank you SO much for such EXCELLENT wait staff. This is what makes your restaurant wonderful and people wanting to return to the establishment. I know that we WILL be back. ♥️

    This restaurant never let's us down. The servers are always very friendly and attentive. The food is spectacular each time. The restaurant manager even stopped by our table for a chat. One of our favorite restaurants!

    Update: My last experience here was awesome. You can read about that below. My wife got the chicken pot pie. I tried some of it, and it was delicious. My children both got chicken strips and they were nice and hot. I got the half slab of ribs. My fries tasted burnt and stale. My ribs were so tough I knocked one off my plate while trying to cut it. Ribs were cool as well and not hot. I was very dissatisfied. However, our waiter was awesome. He was very apologetic. The manager was very kind. This may have been a fluke. But I will not order their ribs again. The manager graciously took my plate off our ticket since I didn't eat it. My wife and I had the bacon cheeseburger. It was delicious. My mother-in-law had the chicken strip dinner with shrimp. Everything was good and our waitress Lindy was excellent.

    Cheddars has been one of my spots! Love their salads, BUT when you have Rude manager “Steve” that is argumentative and tells you what he will not do is make another one, and does not let you get a word in.. because he is trying to stroke his small ego… it really makes you look even smaller… it’s time to go back to the basics.. it’s called etiquette, professionalism, know when to shut your trap…we asked for a cake to be warmed but what chef would warm it with the ice cream on there is beyond me and wipe the edges like this. It does. NOT LOOK presentable at all.. SHAME ON YOU!!smh FYI: this is how it looked when they brought it back out warmed up! UPDATE: I don’t need a $15 gift card… What I would like to see is kindness, respect, professionalism, and better training…Thanks for listening… and listen to you front line workers…. The hostesses, the waitresses, etc and be better! Steve needs anger management classes, and needs to learn how to listen and stop talking..

    The food was excellent. My 7yr old loved the chicken pot pie and mashed potatoes and gravy. I am gluten free and tried the honey dijon chicken breast with sauteed mushrooms which was served over a bed of rice. I also ordered green beans as my side item. The chicken was tender and so flavorful with or without the sauce but the sauce enhanced it even more. The atmosphere was wonderful. The service was just okay. We had our food delivered but then we were never checked on again until we waited for 20 minutes to leave. She finally asked if we needed boxes in which she brought them to us. I had ordered the spinach dip but it was never brought and it wasn't on my ticket so I didn't say anything. She seemed preoccupied. Other than the service, everything was excellent.

    I live nearby and get curbside takeout every now and then. They always get my order correct, the food is always fresh, and their curbside delivery is quick and easy! Great prices also. Thanks for being one of my consistently good go-to neighborhood lunch/dinner pickup spots.

    So amazing, rolls are incredible, drinks are spot on, and the food is absolutely incredible .. service was super amazing great place go visit

  • 5/5 Christian T. 2 years ago on Google
    Had a great day in Little Rock, the way to end a great day is with a great meal. The last time I've been to Cheddar's was about 6-7yrs ago while I was living in Texas. My wife have never been there let alone heard Cheddar's. We all had a great time and dinner as well. I would have loved to get a Painkiller, the toasted coconut on the rim. But unfortunately I had a 2hr drive home

  • 4/5 Sebastiana S. 2 years ago on Google
    This place was so amazingly delicious!!! I've never been to the one in my town. Ended up here because of proximity to the hospital. Bathrooms could be cleaner, but the service and food is great. I will definitely visit the one back home.

  • 1/5 NaTasha M. 2 years ago on Google
    Food was horrible! My chicken was salty and I couldn't eat it. My water had something floating in it. My husband broccoli and cheese had hair in it.I placed my order 1st before my group wanted to place theirs and I still got mine last. We ordered spinach dip and it was cold. This experience was horrible. We only came here because my kids father had passed away and they wanted to eat here after his wake.
